Factory EDID Slots Factory EDID is categorized by video format (DVI or HDMI). EDID is available for most common resolutions and audio formats. Output Slots Each slot contains the EDID of the corresponding, connected sink device. When HPD is detected, the EDID of that sink device is stored automatically. When a sink is removed or power to the DA HD 4K device is cycled, the EDID is removed from the slot and is replaced with the default value until a new sink is detected and a new EDID stored. -
